I can make a crackling sound in one ear, both if I swallow at the same time. It pops my ears for me when they are hurting from cabin pressure.

When I'm on my own walking in the street, sometimes I'll pretend to have races with random people. I'll see someone up ahead, decide 'right, i'm in a race with them' and off i'll go! There'll be a lamp post or something that marks the 'finish line'. I'm not allowed to run. Sometimes I give a running commentary in my head, too...

I nearly always win, but that's probably because they never know they're in a race.

It's weird, but it gets me places QUICK!

Tensor Tympani

Contracting muscles produce vibration and sound.[4] Slow twitch fibers produce 10 to 30 contractions per second (equivalent to 10 to 30 Hz sound frequency). Fast twitch fibers produce 30 to 70 contractions per second (equivalent to 30 to 70 Hz sound frequency).[5] The vibration can be witnessed and felt by highly tensing one's muscles, as when making a firm fist. The sound can be heard by pressing a highly tensed muscle against the ear, again a firm fist is a good example. The sound is usually described as a rumbling sound. Some individuals can voluntarily produce this rumbling sound by contracting the tensor tympani muscle of the middle ear. The rumbling sound can also be heard when the neck or jaw muscles are highly tensed.

:lol: You are not alone brother! :w: I wish I knew what it was or even how I do it. It's the strangest thing coz usually with any movement or the like I understand how my body is making it happen, but with this it's just - 'thought' - 'crackle' :6:
You're the only other person I know of to know what this is let alone be able to do it! :corndance:

if you do it too many times in a row does it stop happening or stop in one ear? it does for me :lol:

also if i do "it" "hard" enough i can sorta hear a noise after the crackle. sorta sounds like air moving through it or something

and i know! i honestly thought it was just me

I do not know about doing it too many times or doing it 'hard'. As I don't know how it works i'm way too paranoid that half my face will just drop off or some shit!

I do that, but the commentary in my head is done by an anchor from the Kentucky Derby.
